THE CORPORATION OF THE
CITY OF PORT COQUITLAM

TO Doug Riecken. P.Eng. March 12, 1990
Deputy City Engineer

FROM: Russ Mammel. A.Sc.T.
Project/Traffic Tech.

SUBJECT: Crosswalk on Westwood at Kitchener and Bus Route 162.

RECOMMENDATIONS :

1. Install a painted crosswalk On Westwood at the south side of Woodland.
complete with RA-4 pedestrian Signs mounted on each side of Westwood.

Turn down the request for the City to ask 8.C. Transit for changes to
the routing of bus 162.

CROSSWALK REQUEST ON WESTWOOD

Requested is the installation of a crosswalk on Westwood near the
Kitchener/Woodland intersections. This crossing would be an interim
seasure until the signalization of the intersection takes place.

The safest location for a crosswalk on Westwood is at the Woodland
intersection, as shown on the attached sketch. Because Woodland is
four-leg intersection. visibility of this crossing would be much
better than one located at Kitchener.

REQUEST TO RE=ROUTE BUS 162

Bus 162 presently uses Hastings Street, Patricia Avenue, and Woodland
Drive. Requested is that this bus be re-routed to use Lougheed and
Westwood. The reason stated for this request is that few riders use
this bus and the road is in poor repair.
